Happy Sunday.....Did you have a great week? Mine flew by. Hard to believe Summer is almost over. I am completely not ready for it to end. The kids are heading back to school in 5 weeks and I feel like we have really done to much. I had the kids make a fun list and I am hoping we can try to do some of the things off their list.
Today I have a Zombie card to share with you. This is a digi stamp from I Brake For Stamps, and the name of the stamps is Zombie Time! I am completely head over heels for the new Rick St. Dennis Halloween line....You have got to check them out! Well, that is all for me today. I am trying to finish my last 2 papers for my History class, and then Life can go back to normal. Have a great Sunday!

Happy Tuesday! I hope you had a great weekend, and are enjoying your
start to the week. I have to say that it is SOOO HOT here in New
Hampshire here this week, and it makes me happy :) We have had so much
rain, I am thrilled to see the sun, even if the humidity has to come
with it.
Speaking of Sun and hot weather, we have a fabulous challenge for you this week. This week we want to see your vacation inspired projects!
During the spring, I attended a stamp show, and I saw this crab stamp,
with the starfish, and I knew I had to have it. My family and I are
huge "Maine" people, and we often go crab fishing with the kids, which
they completely love, so I had to have this stamp. I am thrilled that I
am getting a chance to use this stamp, and I am actually going to send
this card to one of my favorites. This card is heading out to my Aunt
Kathy, who also completely loves Maine, but not so much the
crabs....hehehe! I am so looking forward to your projects this week!
As far as last weeks Ribbon and Bows challenge.....Yikes, you all
made it so very hard this week...I was drooling over all your
creations. So, here we go. Last weeks TOP 3 are:
Rhina

Eva

Kaija

Happy Day! I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I know I am. This is the first weekend in a month that I have had absolutely no commitments. I have been able to work on homework, clean the house, stamp, and spend some time with the kiddos. I love these kind of weekends....
The card I have to share with you is a card I made with one of my new I Brake For Stamps Digi Images, and her name is Pia! I knew the minute I saw this image that I had to have it, as one of my BF's name is Pia, so I knew when I was making this card, who is was going to.....So, here is to you Pia! Watch your mail girl, it's on its way!

Happy Sunday! I am wishing today was Saturday, so tomorrow was Sunday and I could have one more day off before work tomorrow. Yesterday, we got home from a week in Wells Maine, and I enjoyed every minute of it. The boat, the ocean, the bike rides, the sand, the kids playing, and oh yeah, the ICE CREAM! It really was a great week, and I wish it didn't have to end, but as we know, all good things must come to an end.
Before I left, I made this card with one of my new digis from I Brake for Stamps. It is called the Mad Hatter, and I took him to a whole another creepy level and gave him some blood shot eyes. I couldn't help it, as he was already creepy, and he was just shouting out CRAZY, LOL!!!! As you know, i have been enjoying the Rick St. Dennis images at I Brake For Stamps, and while I was gone, Della (the owner) released his Halloween Digi line....ARGH...you have got to see them....they are AWESOME!!!! I can't wait to get my markers on those images...hehehehe.....well, that's all I have for you today. I must get my butt in gear, and get some things done around here. I hope you have a great end to the weekend!

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all enjoyed your weekend. Here in NH, the weather has been terrible. We have had the 3rd rainiest June of all time, and as we continue in July, it is nothing new. It has been pouring here, and we even had a tornado warning today. That is unheard of in New Hampshire. I swear, the weather has be crazy this year.

So we have a great challenge for you this week. We want to see your ribbons and bows. For my card, I used a Sherry Baldy stamps. I just love her big eyes, and all the flowers. I used a ribbon behind my image and the image has a bow in her hair. Thankfully, because I am not so good a tying bows!
The cards for last weeks Patriotic challenge were AWESOME!!! As always it was really difficult to pick the TOP 3, but without further A du, they are:
Beth
